When I was 15 I horrified my parents when they attended—with guests—a swim meet that i was in. I guess I had developed more than they thought. The next day i was handed a jockstrap and told to wear it. They said I was hanging out like a horse. Majorly embarrassing! Jockstraps with Speedos didn't do it for me—it was uncomfortable being strapped in. And, none of the rest of the guys were wearing them. So I learned to tuck it down under. As an adult: left, right, down, wherever. I also cut the panel out of the front inside of my Speedos for more comfort. I like the equipment I've got and if anyone is looking they can enjoy the view.
